The sentiment is pieced together from the *NEW* Wishing You stamp set from our latest release! I LOVE the fun way the sentiments in this stamp set can be mixed and matched--SUPER versatile! A few Cookie Dough and Peppermint sequins add more shine and texture on top of the patterned papers I chose for this card.

This card turned out pretty darn cute, if I do say so myself! What do you think of it? I'd love for you to leave me a comment and let me know! :)

Now it's YOUR turn to join the fun! Hop over to the Paper Sweeties blog to link up, and don't forget to check out the inspiration from the other gals, too!

Hello
again, friends! It's Monday, so that means I get to share another
creation with you that uses some fabulous stamps from the Great Impressions online store! Today I'm sharing a fun card using one the *NEWEST* sentiments. Take a peek...

I decided to use the sentiment, E876 My Sunshine,
as my only stamping. I just accented it with a couple of butterflies. :) Liquid pearls were my embellishment of choice on this card--keeping it simple helped make the sentiment the star!

I
just LOVE the way this turned out, and I hope you do, too! Please let
me know your thoughts by leaving a comment below for me to read. :)

I started by stamping my hook, basket, and leaf images from the *NEW* Summer Baskets set onto the shimmer cardstock. I stamped three flowers onto another piece of the shimmery paper and then fussy cut them out. I added some flower sequins with liquid pearl centers for more shine and texture. The shine is just SO pretty IRL--I wish the photos did it justice!

After creating the basket and layering things together, I added a sentiment from the *NEW* Flower of the Month: Poppies stamp set below. The font that Joanna used for the past release is just SO PRETTY!!! All the sets that came with sentiment feature it, so make sure to grab them from the store!

Lastly, I matted the shimmery panel with some green cardstock and then layered it onto a card base that was gussied up with some more green cardstock and patterned paper. I kept the color combo simple--adding more colors in just didn't feel right! I LOVE the way this turned out, and I hope you do, too! I can't wait to hear your thoughts in the comments below!

Thank you SO much for stopping by today! That's all for me today! Make sure to hop over to the Inspired By Stamping online store to grab these fabulous products. Also, don't forget to join in our monthly challenge, too! Until next time, HUGS and happy stamping to you all! :)

Hi, all! I'm back with my final project for the CutCardStock blog. It's been a wonderful company to work with--many thanks to Amber, the DT coordinator, and Cindy, the owner, for everything! :) Today, I'm sharing a fun card using a Faux Patina panel and a punched pumpkin, AKA a Punchkin. Take a peek...

I went with an autumnal color scheme because I am SO ready for fall. ;) I think this turned out beautifully. I hope you do, too! I can't wait to hear your thoughts in the comments below! :)

Thank you so much for stopping by today! I invite you to visit the CutCardStock blog for a full tutorial on how to make this card. One last THANK YOU to Amber and Cindy, as well! I will be back soon with more crafty endeavors, friends! HUGS and happy stamping to you all! :)

Hello
again, friends! It's Monday, so that means I get to share another
creation with you that uses some fabulous stamps from the Great Impressions online store! Today I'm sharing a fun card using one the *NEWEST* sentiments, and it is a pun! I LOVE IT! Take a peek...

I decided to use the sentiment, D507 Seize the Daisies, as the center of...a daisy! I'm a pun lover, so it was inevitable. ;) Some leaves were added to reinforce the floral idea, plus a few other goodies. The sentiment was highlighted with some Sakura glitter gels pens, too.

I
just LOVE the way this turned out, and I hope you do, too! Please let
me know your thoughts by leaving a comment below for me to read. :)
